This Is How I Remember It...

Being Replaced!

By J.W. BairdPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

Being replaced isn't fun at all

Yet being replaced is inevitable

Being replaced as mother is the hardest to swallow by far

But you will begin to feel a little better when you know your son now has it all

A wife, and a child of his own he now can call home

Being replaced isn't fun at all

Yet being replaced is inevitable

Being replaced as a significant other not to fun either

But when he finally realizes the grass isn't any greener you will see he isn't doing any better

Your heart may break a bit, but think of the strength inside of you that will become lit

Being replaced isn't fun at all

Yet being replaced is inevitable

Being replaced at a dream job isn't always the end to your nightmare

But after years of falling apart, and rebuilding, searching for who you are

Life becomes a lot better when you start to finally focus on yourself more

Who Am I?

I keep asking myself. I spent half of my life as a single mother. Pushing myself to be the strong independent individual that I have always been. My kids have grown and my life seems turned upside down.

I now search to find myself!
